50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

50% off BD's at Borders 7/3 (limit of 2)

usually their 40% off list price still puts them equal or slightly above deals you can find elsewhere but might be able to possibly find something with the extra 10% off (assuming they don't jack up prices)

99.9% most will be at their SRP, meaning a Blu-ray that has an SRP of $39.99 will cost $19.98. ;)

I always check DVD Price Search from my iPhone before I buy a DVD/BD from Borders. I did the same during the time they cleaned out most of their inventory to make sure I was getting a good deal (or not).

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

I'm sure there is stuff to be found (multi disc sets especially) if you look hard enough

ex. 24 Season 7 - 72.99 list (per web site) - 50% = 36.50
Amazon's price shipped without tax 44.49

with tax at Borders you are still slightly less than the zon

good deal for someone with a Borders GC to burn

I am not here to justify Borders everyday pricing but this could be good for a select few items

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Yeah, boxsets and hard-to-find catalog titles are the only discounts that'll be had.

I scored Director's Label 2 boxset when Borders was clearing their inventory for half off. Same goes for the complete series of Undeclared and Spaced.

Criterion's
ex. Bottle Rocket
Borders list 40.99 - 50% = 20.50 pre tax

lowest price on the web shipped with tax 25.39

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

This is pretty good if your Borders still carries Blu-rays. I went to 3 separate Borders yesterday and and 1 didn't sell DVDs or BDs anyomre, another had only new releases and the other one had a small amount of catalog titles they were liquidating and new releases.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

does anyone know if this works for pre-orders too?

these were some decent deals i found while looking through:
dexter season 1 = $30
dexter season 2 = $30
dexter season 3 = $30 (pre-order)
dog soldiers = $9.50
How I Met Your Mother Season 4 = $26 (pre-order)
Otis = $8.50
Cast Away = $12
Girls Gone Wild = $10-11 (haha, are these even worth it??)

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Thanks OP! Nice find. The Borders in Clear Lake (Houston) still has a decent BD section.

Drav3n: The fine print says it does not work on special orders or reservations. Otis has been $9.49 at Fry's on BD the last few times I have been there. Not sure if you have a Fry's near you or whether they have consistent pricing or not but just FYI.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Nope, since it is a one day in-store coupon. Not for use online.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

no fry's in my area. i wouldnt buy otis on bluray anyway. i heard the transfer is crap, and they made in a bare bones disc. ill keep my dvd copy.

o well, maybe ill just bite on the dexter blurays.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Might be good for some of the big boxsets but the normal priced stuff...pass.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

You may want to wait until the DD sale for the Criterions. They should be under $20 if they don't raise prices on them.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

I'm looking at Sin City and Chicago, two of those titles that are never on sale anywhere. 50% of list is $18 and $17.50 (plus tax). That's better than anywhere else I've seen, although only a buck or two under what the DDD sale will be.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Ghostbusters Blu Ray is only $10.50 if they accept the manufacturer coupon

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Might try to snag the blu-ray of Torchwood S2 or True Blood. Haven't decided.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

How does Borders manage to stay afloat with these kinda pricing ? I went to the one in Cerritos, SoCal. They have one stand alone rack of BDs, about 10 titles and they want about $35 for each. What's even the point of stocking these ? I have a $25 GC to burn but these prices kill...

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

I was considering some Criterions...and may still take a July 3rd run to a Borders...but, yeah, if DDD doesn't change their prices for the upcoming sale, the Criterions are $18 and $19 each after discount, with no tax or shipping. So...that's about $4 cheaper each then Borders would be after tax here in WA.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

they stay afloat because books are their primary business
they aren't catering to informed BD bargain shoppers... they'd much rather sell at their list price

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Eh, I'll wait for DDD.

There's a hole in the life jacket and they'll most likely drown by the end of the year.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

Membership is free. You can sign up at the register and use the coupon right away.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

that could be said for most businesses these days

this is correct

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

X-Men Trilogy = $42 + tax

also likely to have movie cash included for Ice Age Dawn Of The Dinosuars (Night At The Museum Battle Of The Smithsonian, or Wolverine)

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

My borders has the Neil young set.
$250 before coupon.
Woodstock set $70 before coupon.

Re: 50% Off Blu-Ray @ Borders - 7/3 Only (Limit 2)
 

yes but that wouldn't be the list price .... that would be their "sale" price
studio MSRP for the set is 349.99
sale price comes off of list (433.99 according to Borders' website) not marked down price
